Crypto Market This Weekend: Will It Rise, Fall, or Go Sideways? What Does Expert Evan Aldo Say?

As the weekend approaches, many cryptocurrency traders are questioning whether the market will "pump" (pump), "dump" (dump), or simply go sideways (sideways). On The Paul Barron Network channel, technical analyst Evan Aldo shared his perspective on the market's short term trend. According to Aldo, the market is likely to go sideways or experience a slight pump by the weekend. If forced to choose a direction, he leans more towards the possibility of prices increasing, but does not rule out the chance that the market will only move sideways in the coming days. What Should Beginners Buy? When asked if he were a new investor, he would choose to invest in which asset, Evan Aldo replied decisively: Ethereum (ETH). Why Ethereum? Aldo explains that Ethereum is showing superior strength compared to Bitcoin and is highly likely to have bottomed out in the ETH/BTC pair. Specifically, he assesses a 90% chance that ETH has bottomed out against BTC. In addition, ETH has also created a local bottom compared to the altcoin market in general — represented by the Total 3 index ( which includes all coins except Bitcoin and Ethereum ). According to Aldo, ETH is likely to outperform smaller altcoins in the coming months. How High Can Ethereum Go? In the long term, some market experts are expecting Ethereum to reach between 6,000 and 7,400 USD. Some predictions even suggest that if the market has strong momentum, ETH could reach 10,000 – 11,000 USD. However, in the short term, Aldo is focusing on the nearest target of 3,200 USD. If ETH can break this level firmly, it could pave the way for larger price pumps from now until the end of 2025. A particularly optimistic signal that Aldo pointed out is a rare "trigger wave" forming on the 3-week chart. This technical pattern has appeared before major growth phases in the past, such as in 2020. While a 10x increase is unlikely this time, a 2-3x increase for ETH is entirely possible. What Will Happen Next With The Market? According to Aldo, once the Federal Reserve (Fed) starts cutting interest rates, the crypto market will enter a true "altcoin season," where smaller coins can surge significantly and outperform ETH. However, before that happens, Aldo believes that Ethereum is still an essential asset to hold, especially in the current transitional phase of the market. In Summary Weekend prediction: It may move sideways or increase slightly. The likelihood of an increase is higher. If you are a newcomer: You should start with Ethereum (ETH). Short term target: 3,200 USD is the next important milestone. Long term target: It may reach 6,000 – 11,000 USD if the upward trend continues. Strategy: Hold ETH during the current phase, wait for the altcoin season if the Fed cuts interest rates. If you are a new investor or are unsure during the market's correction phase, Ethereum may be a safe yet potential choice to kickstart your crypto investment journey.
